| Abstract: | This paper describes our research on a facile and effective approach to fabricate novel silk fibroin/poly(1,4-butylene succinate) (SF/PBS) composites for the first time. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectra (IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to investigate the morphology, chemical structure, crystalline state, thermostability and possible interactions of SF with PBS for the SF/PBS composites. In addition, the determinations of the EC109 cell viability was also been completed to explore the influence of SF/PBS mass ratio on cytocompatibility. Because of the composite of SF with the PBS, the thermostability and cell viability of the SF/PBS composites were higher than those of neat SF material. However, SF did not chemically react with PMMA during the formation of the composite, and SF hardly interacts with PBS in the composite. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
